Ruth Langsford revealed how she has tackled her troublesome mane, after revealing that the menopause has left her hair thinner than ever.

The mum-of-one took to social media over the weekend, to share that she had decided on tape extensions, to help tackle her thinning hair situation.

Loose Women presenter Ruth relied on an employee of her trusted Surrey hairdresser Leo Bancroft for the treatment, which involves tape being spun around the top of the extensions to keep them in place.

Explaining why she’d decided to thicken up her mane, Ruth explained, ‘Menopause has made my hair a bit thin so we’re adding a few, fine extensions to thicken out the bottom #hairextensions #thickerhair’

“A few years ago I stopped being able to sleep. I would wake up in the night boiling hot, I’d throw off the covers and then wake up freezing. It would happen so often that after a few months I was completely exhausted.

Ruth continued, “I felt I was losing my energy, losing a bit of who I was. But I am always pragmatic, so I made an appointment to see my GP.”

The This Morning star went on to take a course of bioidentical hormone therapy, which she claims have worked ‘really well’ for her.
